Can you replace a regular headlight bulb with a LED bulb? Would there need to be a conversion kit or adapted?

I don't think the output for the bulbs on these tucks has been perfected. I know some cars have led headlights.

I dont think they get the beam necessary for headlights. they may work for fog lights though

You can directly plug in a LED bulb where the headlight bulb was. It will turn on.
It will also be entirely useless for anything other than a show car. But it IS doable.

cool effect but not bright enough unless you get a high wattage LED setup

I had asked the same question a while back. Some of the new High end cars have LED projector head lights. I think the prius has them as a option
